Rahman would be aging as well, mind.
Exactly. It makes you wonder even about most trilogies. Does peak Patterson beat peak Ingo by a 2-1 ratio if they fight 20 times? Or was the...
Boxrec records 15 bouts between Langford and McVey. Total score: 7-2-6 in Langford's favor. Not a 15 bout sweep. Including newspaper decisions,...
Assuming Greb existed, why do you think he ducked Holyfield? Was Greb afraid? Did Greb know about Holyfield's allegations of juicing? Or was it...
The tally of victories between Langford and McVey is interesting. Langford was clearly better. But unlike Classic forum fantasy fights, it wasn't...
Yep. Exactly. That's one of the reasons I always thought of beltholders as glorified contenders until they unify.
It's Old Foreman vs Zaire Foreman, in Zaire. Good analysis nonetheless, though.
Before the fight: Old Foreman: "Just remember kid: If you knock me out tonight, in ten years, you'll be the broken old man looking up at his...
Who are the fighters who acted like over the top caricatures in public to sell tickets, but were actually normal, private, reserved people outside...

Old Foreman replaces Ali for the Rumble in the Jungle. Does Old Foreman manage to exploit his former self's weaknesses? Or will youth (and...
I was thinking in terms of a line Sonny would deliver as a Batman villain.
:lol:
Steroid testing still not required in the Golota/Bowe fights as late as 1996:...
The top 10 rankings come from Boxrec's table of Ring ranked guys. But I did the colored highlights.
Assuming you're not joking, is strychnine the sort of thing that gives a short-term boost like that? I thought it was more of a long distance...
:D Wonder Willard transcends superheavyweight status.
Well, Carnera was basically a 30s version of Valuev, then. The Circle of Life is complete.
Valuev was basically a 2000s version of Ingo.
The GOAT splatters Primo all over the canvas. Prime Johansson (a mayfly entity whose career stretched up to Patterson 1, but no further) makes...
...Thereby changing history. *Twilight Zone music plays*
I'm not really interested in the question of whether it's cheating. Rather, I'm interested in the prevalence of all of these substances because...
